16 Days? Come on, guys...

At least make it sound a little plausible:

Remember when the Brits declared Saddam could launch a WMD attack in 45 minutes? Now the State Department is circulating the truthy claim that Iran could produce the enriched uranium it needs for a bomb in just over two weeks.

Sounds plenty scary. Just not true.


I may have even covered this below somewhere, but demystifying this bullshit is extremely important. As noted here, it's ten years at a minimum. Furthermore, I think we should all expect Iran to exaggerate their capability, since they've seen how the world works, and the closer you are to having the bomb, the safer you are.

But two weeks? Get real. At least say six months, give me something to debate...
